I had a system ipython notebook installed on my Ubuntu 14.04 via apt-get. To upgrade the notebook to the newest version, I ran

sudo pip install ipython[notebook] -U

This installed version 3.0.0 of ipython. But when I run ipython, the old version still starts. What is the correct way of using the pip's version?

P.S.: I am interested if there is an alternative to using virtualenv here. – Valentas Mar 09 '15 at 07:48
If you type only python, which version of Python does the interpreter say you are using? – dukebody May 21 '15 at 14:31
System version (2.7.6) - but note I am asking about a specific package (ipython), not python itself. – Valentas May 21 '15 at 18:18
